Breakfast includes accommodation for gluten-free and special dietary requirements. The property features double-glazed windows, thermostatic radiator controls, and uses local suppliers for all breakfast provisions.
“The Old Bridge House wins for its harbor views and walkable access to Looe's shops and restaurants. I especially like the sounds of its locally sourced breakfast and the convenience of an honesty bar. Be aware that its elevated position, while providing those great views, may pose a challenge for those with mobility issues.”
